Yamini needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Hubballi
Yamini has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Hubballi Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Yamini can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week. We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 35 km each way. Yamini is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food. Please say which day works for you in the comments. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    • So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Hubballi.

      • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings

        • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 8 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Hubballi.
